Veteran hospice volunteers are a valuable resource for other Veterans at the end of life as they share similar experiences, a common language terminology, cultural bond and codes of conduct. This allows the perfect gateway to be opened between Veteran Volunteers and Veteran Patients being cared for by Good Shepherd Hospice. Our Valor program allows Veterans to feel more at ease with various levels of care that a Veteran Volunteer offers. Good Shepherd Hospice has many Veteran Patients that would love the opportunity to receive their final salute during the Pinning Ceremonies we provide patients. We have many opportunities available for Veteran Volunteers both in the community and at the Good Shepherd Hospice Houses. Please call Volunteer Coordinator Christina Olan at 863-956-7390 to help better assist you.

Mission Statement
Chapters Health System mission is simple: Delivering extraordinary care to every person we touch in every community we serve. Volunteer opportunities are available throughout the seven Central Florida counties we serve: Hardee, Highlands, Lake, Orange, Osceola, Polk and Sumter, and now in Cobb County, Georgia. If you live in a neighboring county, you can still volunteer. However, all of your volunteer activities will take place in one of our seven counties, typically the one closest to you. PLEASE NOTE: Even if you are interested in several different volunteer roles within our organization, you only need to click on one opportunity during this process. You will have a chance to discuss ALL of your areas of interest during your volunteer training. Thanks!
Description
Chapters Health System volunteers are a vital part of our entire organization, and play an active role in helping to provide the many special comfort and support services that distinguish Chapters Health System.
Our volunteers are special, but not out of the ordinary. They are regular people just like you. They use common sense and understanding. They do not need a medical background. They listen. They care. Volunteers help make a patient's life more fulfilling and satisfying by giving their time, understanding, and support and asking nothing in return. They also provide support to caregivers who are often with the patient 24/7 and may need a much needed break. If direct care is not for you, you can assist with administrative tasks at our office locations, and help out with events and community outreach. Any Chapters Health System volunteer will tell you that they feel they receive more from their experience than they give.
PLEASE NOTE: All volunteers are required to go through a training class with additional training required for some positions. For this reason, becoming a Chapters Health System volunteer is typically not appropriate for court related community service hours or other short-term requests. Ideally, our volunteers commit to at least one year with us.
